‘Pharma Bro’ Shkreli sent to jail after offering $5,000 for Clinton’s hair in cloning joke
‘Convicted fraudster and former pharmaceuticals company CEO Martin Shkreli, once dubbed the “most hated man in America,” is headed to jail after having his bail revoked over a Facebook post in which he offered $5,000 for a strand of Hillary Clinton’s hair.
US District Judge Kiyo Matsumoto ruled on Wednesday that Shkreli’s post on September 4 showed he posed a danger to the public.
In that post, the 34-year-old offered a generous bounty to anyone who could steal a hair from former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton while she was on her book tour.
“The Clinton Foundation is willing to KILL to protect its secrets. So on HRC’s book tour, try to grab a hair from her. I must confirm the sequences I have. Will pay $5,000 per hair obtained from Hillary Clinton,” the Facebook post stated.’
